The Ottoman Empire at this point was like a rotten tooth. Falling apart but standing and causing much pain. That it survived to be destroyed in WWI is nothing short of a miracle.
More then a miracle it’s because European powers deliberately acted to keep it together, as its weak authority benefitted European ambitions in the area, if it had collapsed and was replaced by other stable and modernizing states it would have caused more trouble for them.

The Middle East was the centre of the world's economy, linking Europe to South & East Asia, and giving it control over the trade routes. The dicovery of the Americas changed that, and gave the West an ever increasing advantage over the Middle East. Eventually, the West won. The rest is just details.

Ottoman new army during the Selim the III completely recruited from Anatolia, west of Euphrates. This situation also explains Turkey's borders and internal conflicts.
Would be interesting to talk more about Algerian political system at this time , Jean Jacques Rousseau the philosopher of the western enlightenment praised it, as it was one of the first modern republics in the world (although it was somehow an Islamic military republic) it was still recognised as such by the likes of Louis 14 of France and Montesquieu. I think no Islamic power of the time had a quasi democratic system like Algiers. PS: Never said Algiers was not Ottoman at this point, however it still was an autonomous state and its rulers of foreign origins identified themselves as Algerian politically. that's why it's also called "Ottoman Algeria"
@puraLusa all western european powers in the 17th and 18th century had slavery as an economic basis in their colonies, but no one denies their enlightenment. The US keeps basically the same democratic system since it's independence, and they also kept slavery for almost a century
@@puraLusa Algiers is an Islamic version of the state of the Knights hospitaller of Rhodes, the pirate Barbarossa brothers created this state for a military purpose, fight against the Spanish empire, so slave trade and naval spoils and tribute were a primary source of income yet agriculture and trade did take a significant part in this state economy, in fact the crisis of the 19th century and the revolts happened because of the decline in those fields, and regarding trade it was one of the main causes of the french colonisation, check about the Jewish brothers bacri and bushnach case with the debts of the Algerian wheat supplies to Napoleonic France.
Would love an episode on north africa, especially on morocco and how it missed its chance to become a great power again and industralize in the 18th-19th centuries letting its european neighbors create a technological gap that ultimately led to it not being able to defend its massive precolonial territories and also putting it in debt in a desperate attempt to modernize making things worse
The beginning of muhammed ali's campaign in arabia was difficult. Tuson pasha was defeated in the battle of wadi safra. The wahhabis didn't exploit this and the campaign was resumed until the battle of basl where the saudis where defeated by muhammed ali himself commanding. Some bedouin tribes defected with promises of gold. The siege of diriyah was mentioned in the video. However another wahhabi holdout was in the south called asir. The south was mountainous and much more populated and was able to wage a guerrilla war against muhammed ali's troops. Ali was able to capture and and kill many leaders but the resistance persisted until peace was agreed and the emirate of asir was established and was allied to the second saudi state in nejd. This asir state later allied itself with muhammed ali's descendants againts the ottomans but was destroyed by the turks in 1870s. The third saudi state reunited most regions of the first in modern saudi arabia between 1902 and 1932.
People blame the today’s Middle East’s problem on the French and British division of land. But I doubt it really would have changed the amount of violence and bloodshed that region always experienced
you have to recognize that 18th century world as a whole is violent place so saying that we didnt have to with the violence after 19th problems after border drawings its not our problem its their inherit problem so we are not guilty is not a good argument
Well they funded and supported many rebellions and after ww1 the borders they drew were intentionally drawn to ensure continuous civil wars and border fights amidst the rising ntionalistic sentiments
Algeria would also face civil war known as the Darqaoua uprising which was supported by foreign nations and even gained some officials support such as the bey of Oran which caused unrest and suspicion in its final years and have weakened it alot both internally and externally. Also Ali khodja wasn't the First Algerian dey, other ones such as Baba Ali Chaouch and Mohemed Ben Othman were also Algerians born in Algiers even Hassan pasha was half Algerian with his mother being Algerian.
I know this is reductive and far too simplistic, but it really does sound like the religious imperative in Islam for absolute rulers is the Middle East's greatest weakness. When you have so many competing factions all trying to be the one person who gets to be in power, despite the fact he'll never be accepted by all of the other factions, unity and prosperity is pretty much impossible. One that basis it's more surprising the Islamic Golden Age happened than that it ended. I guess the rest of humanity is lucky that Muhammed didn't instruct his followers to implement corporatism or oligarchy or some other form of rule by coalition and went the autocracy route, thereby dooming them to factional in-fighting for centuries after the deaths of his direct inheritors.
This is a ridiculous claim in my opinion. The reasons the islamic empires fell are the same reasons for the fall of any empire : weak leadership leading to new usurpers, wether governors or officiers et, to rebell or form their own sepratist state, oppurtinist inciting civil strife, corruption.. Etc etc. Relegion or not it's almost the same every time
Oh as if europe was a peaceful place it was as bloodiest as the middel east or worst you people have the 100 years war what wars then that , it is a fact muslims were strong when they were united

Selim 3 gets thrown out and succeeded by Mustafa 4 except there's a surprise turned out Mahmoud later called as Mahmoud 2 hid in the cabinets as Mustafa 4 used the guards to kill Selim 3 but missed Mahmoud due to him not being placed in the target list Turkish slave soldiers committed the biggest blunder in history.
Read some history. The first recorded battles, Hattin, and Kadesh, happened right there. The Eurasian land mass has never been together They have been at each others throats since the beginning of civilization.
Well not slave soldiers, but mostly mercenary, and also Albanian womens have many children in those times, so didn't matter that five boys from the same family leave the country and only two returns, those two were rich (according with local standards), and before died aford to have four wife's each and have 20 children each, half of the children were men and become mercenary, and the women married with some surviving mercenary that return from a far away campaign. So actually was a way of life that make sense, as long is a decaying empire near by, that needs mercenary from a poorer and hard-core provincial region.
@@AY-qz3pu half of the violence (like other places) wasn't reported, abject poverty was generally accepted by the rulling class, due to the block to the printing press iliteracy was the norm, slavery was an accepted business.

The middle east was always doomed to fell apart. Lands taken by christians, with major ancient indigenous Christian societies in it, always ruled by a big empire without ever having the chance to develop a unique national characteristic amd to adapt the political system of the Western countries which could provide a stable political/social life. The Christian states that were liberated from the Ottomans could succeed in a greater level (bad luck with thr socialistic period) since they had a national unique identity amd adopted the Western political system while thr Arabs couldn't easily done neither of these. Only in our days some Arab countries finally could develop a unique national identity, such as Egypt and been a bit more stable...
@@yungsteaksauceakalilwasher6571comentator nationality makes zero diference. Until the international trade of slaves was banned a lot of powerful people were rich cause of slave trade as it was a fast way to make fast money.
Thank God we didn’t have to deal with middle eastern shenanigans and ottoman occupation here in Morocco. Kinda interesting since we had our own empire which was in decline and if we didn’t piss of the French by supporting emir abdelkader and declaring war on them we would probably be an empire to this day. Fun fact Morocco was the only African kingdom/country/empire to have a steam navy and modern military in the 1800s.
Muslims. Muslims tore the Islamic world apart. Of the first four caliphs (Abu Bakr, Umar, Uthman, and Ali), three died violently (Umar, Uthman, and Ali). Two of these (Uthman and Ali) were killed by other Muslims (including a son of the first caliph) and one (Umar) by a slave in revenge for oppression.
not really. ottomans inherited from the last abbasid patriarch and reunited the lands. the mongols invasion was a wake up call to people of the time who were too comfortable with their numerous small divided states until city walls collapsed. the early ottoman era was impressive with taking Constantinople and pushing through europe, reuniting iraq with egypt and syria and advancing towards algeria. some people might even be grateful for mongols invasion because of the victories that came for islam after the first mongol defeat in syria
@@me_12-vw1vi Excellent points. The extra militarization of Islamic countries adjusting to the Mongols opened doors for greater glory. The loss of Baghdad is a sad tale, though.
Jabzy love your vlogs. Please consider doing the Assyrian, Armenian, Greek and Pontic Christian genocide during the 1st world was at the hands of the barberous Turk's. It will take a man like you to shed light on the truth about the last hurrah of the ottomans
@@alejandromaldonado6159 They didn't allow them in brother, They fought countless battles with Manizkert being the final one. The couda shoulda argument don't work, not with genocide the final outcome. Anyway many ancestors of the Byzantines were caught up in it
@@AY-qz3pu your obviously Turkish, Azerbaijani, or from some islamic country that was been brainwashed to the point that you don't even know about history that is little over 100 years old. YES THERE WAS THREE GENOCIDES inflicted by the young Turks that hated any minority in their country, including Kurds. Why or how did the Armenian population drop from 5.6 million to 3.9 million in three years? Come on Einstein tell me, how did the pontic Christians of the black sea disappear by 1922, and Greek and Turkish Christians almost fall by 90% in four years. Yes there was a religious exchange but that only accounts for 30% of the Christian population of the Area that was their land as the Seljuk Turk's ran from the cumin and Mongols and left your ancient home in the Caspian sea area and invaded Anatolia in the mid 10th century. Erdogen is not a sultan, he is an animal and Kamal will be turning in his grave because of this monster. But just like the ottomans, erdogen will get what's coming to him soon. My advice to you is stop reading the Qur'an and hadiths and start learning the true history of your people and show some understanding and moral forgiveness for what you done
Maybe in the beginning, when Europe was still filled with feudal kingdoms. But whereas the Europeans centralized more and more throughout the centuries, the Ottomans did the opposite.
The better question is to ask when it make sense for it to ever fit together? Ask yourselves- "If we were Energy-Sufficient, would ANYONE IN THEIR RIGHT MINDS CARE ABOUT SUCH THOROUGHLY AWFUL PEOPLE AS ALL SUCH OVER THERE? YOU SURE??" Renewable energy saves more innocent lives that democracy.
@@timothymatthews6458no he’s right. napoleon invaded egypt and it seems only the morrocan dude was concerned with it and considered it a non muslim invasion of a muslim land while others were fighting each other because they didn’t like how this guy sounds and that guy looks. if they had set their differences aside for a while and fought the french and spanish navy harder and resisted british subversion instead of ganging up on “wahabism” the region wouldn’t have ended up like how it is today.

I'll bet the Mongols did a lot of damage. But you never hear about that.
As always, they're the victims😂
These guy are such a good boy. . They didn't let the girls eat the biohazard
Congratulations to the Ottomans for keeping such a geography stable for so many years
With our "gentle" loving hand, yes:)
When the Arabs came out of the desert
You mean when Alexander marched his army towards Anatolia
Lengthy Ottoman occupation led to the decline of Arab states and civilization.
When will there ever be peace in this region? None then and none till now....is it the water, the air or the people?????
The middle east was always doomed to fell apart. Lands taken by christians, with major ancient indigenous Christian societies in it, always ruled by a big empire without ever having the chance to develop a unique national characteristic amd to adapt the political system of the Western countries which could provide a stable political/social life.
The Christian states that were liberated from the Ottomans could succeed in a greater level (bad luck with thr socialistic period) since they had a national unique identity amd adopted the Western political system while thr Arabs couldn't easily done neither of these.
Only in our days some Arab countries finally could develop a unique national identity, such as Egypt and been a bit more stable...
Egypt is not an Arab country. It is occupied by Arabs who has confiscated the history, achievements, and culture as their own.
TL;DR: Literally everyone.
When was it together?
So it is Ibrahim Pasha who betrayed bdullah bin Saud
We Moroccans we never accepted to be ruled from the outside of our kingdom
amazing just how brutal and reliant on slave trade these creatures were so late ,well today as well

@@yungsteaksauceakalilwasher6571comentator nationality makes zero diference. Until the international trade of slaves was banned a lot of powerful people were rich cause of slave trade as it was a fast way to make fast money.
They didn’t rely on agricultural slavery as much as household slavery, unlike european colonies

Thank God we didn’t have to deal with middle eastern shenanigans and ottoman occupation here in Morocco. Kinda interesting since we had our own empire which was in decline and if we didn’t piss of the French by supporting emir abdelkader and declaring war on them we would probably be an empire to this day. Fun fact Morocco was the only African kingdom/country/empire to have a steam navy and modern military in the 1800s.

Colonialism tipped the scales of power.
Muslims. Muslims tore the Islamic world apart. Of the first four caliphs (Abu Bakr, Umar, Uthman, and Ali), three died violently (Umar, Uthman, and Ali). Two of these (Uthman and Ali) were killed by other Muslims (including a son of the first caliph) and one (Umar) by a slave in revenge for oppression.
What do you expect from an animalistic religion

Don't forget the Mongols.
Tell me that you cannot read history without saying that the European Berbers remain Berbers 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
As if europaean didn't slaughter each others in ww1 ww2,30 years wars etc
One could say that the Mongols dismembered classical Islamic civilization centuries earlier.
not really. ottomans inherited from the last abbasid patriarch and reunited the lands. the mongols invasion was a wake up call to people of the time who were too comfortable with their numerous small divided states until city walls collapsed. the early ottoman era was impressive with taking Constantinople and pushing through europe, reuniting iraq with egypt and syria and advancing towards algeria. some people might even be grateful for mongols invasion because of the victories that came for islam after the first mongol defeat in syria
@@me_12-vw1vi Excellent points. The extra militarization of Islamic countries adjusting to the Mongols opened doors for greater glory. The loss of Baghdad is a sad tale, though.

Jabzy love your vlogs. Please consider doing the Assyrian, Armenian, Greek and Pontic Christian genocide during the 1st world was at the hands of the barberous Turk's. It will take a man like you to shed light on the truth about the last hurrah of the ottomans
It's the Byzantines fault for allowing the Turks into Anatolia in the first place
@@alejandromaldonado6159 They didn't allow them in brother, They fought countless battles with Manizkert being the final one. The couda shoulda argument don't work, not with genocide the final outcome. Anyway many ancestors of the Byzantines were caught up in it
@@Noel-i9rwasn't a Genocide
@@AY-qz3pu your obviously Turkish, Azerbaijani, or from some islamic country that was been brainwashed to the point that you don't even know about history that is little over 100 years old. YES THERE WAS THREE GENOCIDES inflicted by the young Turks that hated any minority in their country, including Kurds. Why or how did the Armenian population drop from 5.6 million to 3.9 million in three years? Come on Einstein tell me, how did the pontic Christians of the black sea disappear by 1922, and Greek and Turkish Christians almost fall by 90% in four years. Yes there was a religious exchange but that only accounts for 30% of the Christian population of the Area that was their land as the Seljuk Turk's ran from the cumin and Mongols and left your ancient home in the Caspian sea area and invaded Anatolia in the mid 10th century. Erdogen is not a sultan, he is an animal and Kamal will be turning in his grave because of this monster. But just like the ottomans, erdogen will get what's coming to him soon. My advice to you is stop reading the Qur'an and hadiths and start learning the true history of your people and show some understanding and moral forgiveness for what you done
Heres the thing.
It was always falling apart chief.
With the amount of internal power grabs and rebelion - its a miracle it lasted so long.
@@puraLusathe ottoman system was far more stable and centralized than european empires though
Maybe in the beginning, when Europe was still filled with feudal kingdoms. But whereas the Europeans centralized more and more throughout the centuries, the Ottomans did the opposite.
